350. First time using fibreglass on my boat!

Having removed all the rotten transom wood (see the prior videos in my 'Twiggy transom' playlist, link below), I now needed to patch a couple of holes on the inner fibreglass skin. This video documents that process. No, I could not do it from inside the hull, the bulk of the transom is not accessible due to fixed flotation chambers in the back cabin.

Wear gloves when using acetone!

thank you! How many layers of matting did you need to put on?

David Johns

I used two layers on the little holes (with another over the whole thing in the next video) and three in the middle hole.
